Thanks for the reviews, as a new owner of evercade exp I like to read games reviews of evercade cartridges, I hope time extension reviews all of them π
@KingMike Yeah. I do hope they're selling the rom online so I can play it on my analogue pocket, I can't play the cart version because I don't have my original genesis anymore lol.
I hope they port this to evercade, I love that evercade cartridge only cost $20 with manual, some of this classic games is just too pricey to collect normally.
One of the best console I own, it's really like having an arcade in your home, me and my friends have a blast playing this console. Soul calibur, craxy taxy, samba de amigo (with maracas controller lol), and virtua tennis all big hit with my friends back then π
Man I hope analogue make a portable fpga handheld with the power to emulate 3D console like dreamcast, gamecube, and ps2, and make the form factor like new nintendo 2ds xl, I think that will be great. I want to have a proper hardware emulation like analogue pocket rather than just software emulation.
@Damo I really like metroidvania games, so I prefer to get additional items/moveset that let me explore more area rather than the games to take my moveset/items away, like getting the mist form ability in castlevania sotn to move through iron gate, etc.
I think goodboy galaxy is a good game but I still undecided whether to buy this on evercade cartridge or buy the rom from their website. If the price is $15 or more I think I prefer to buy it for my evercade exp cartridge though, lol. Also I like the evercade games manual.
Already play both demo on my analogue pocket, witch n wiz is okay (I rarely play puzzle games), and goodboy galaxy is good.
It's kind of annoying though that in goodboy galaxy sometimes you have to go through a section of the game without your ability, wheter it's the jetpack, the jumping ability, or the gun.
Can't wait for this cartridge, just bought evercade exp and I think I'll buy this after playing (digital) capcom games and irem arcade 1 cartridge (both included in exp) π
Still waiting for my evercade exp, I bought it maybe about 2 weeks ago, I hope I can play my exp soon since the package just arrive at my country customs. Maybe it will arrive either tomorrow or the day after.
Eh, just bought a brand new, new nintendo 2ds xl, while emulate rather than playing it on the console itself. Also I don't think the battery life will be good, or the software, unless it use it's own os like analogue os.
I really wish valve make steam mini or lite, just make it smaller without the trackpad and gave it oled screen too. Steam deck is really comfortable to hold but it's too big for me.
Plan to get the demons of asteborg / astebros and duke nukem vol.1 cart. Already try goodboy galaxy and witch n' wiz demo, I think I'll buy goodboy galaxy alone for my analogue pocket on their website.
Already have the old game on switch, I don't like this new version, the old pixel graphics are better I think π
I think developer NatsumeAtari are the best at remaking 2D games, just make the sprite nicer for 1080p resolutions and make the game widescreen, and that's it.
Example of their games: the ninja saviors: return of warriors, pocky & rocky reshrined, and their upcoming shadow of the ninja - reborn (trailer below).
Can't wait for the public release, I'm still playing cps2 core on my analogue pocket, capcom dungeons and dragons: tower of doom is really great. Man I wish I bought the dock when I bought my analogue pocket, now the dock is out of stock.
@Poodlestargenerica I already gave up on phone games, every time I got new phones I always installed bunch of games but in the end I didn't play it, battery life is way more important in phone compared to handheld console.
I have 21 games in my phone that I didn't play, I want to uninstalled it but I want to try playing it at least once π
Just installed cfw on my new 2ds xl last night, yeah using the written guide is easier, I never need to play the youtube video guide. I still want (new) physical 3ds cart though for collection though π
@Poodlestargenerica I heard now it's like impossible to brick your 3ds when trying to hack it unless you really try to brick it, so I want to try it since there's a clear written & youtube guide for the hack.
I think the distraction is because there's just too many games, I have many games on analogue pocket but in then end I play chrono trigger rather than new, never played games lol.
@Poodlestargenerica It's like, there's too many distraction with android console, rather than playing games, I just use it for browsing internet, watching youtube, fixing the games cover jpg, etc, while on 3ds after I put homebrew on it I can just start playing games.
After searching everywhere, I finally found a brand new, new nintendo 2ds xl on my local mall, already bought it and I'll put luma cfw on it, I'll play my old nintendo games there
I din't know why, but now I want to buy nintendo new 3ds xl for emulation rather than chinese console, especially one that use android, I just waste my time setting up the machine rather than playing games.
Okay I want to try the demo but everyone said they want my name, adress, and email address, yeah no, just no. I don't even want to give my info if I buy the game (I'll use paypal), wtf I want to give my data for a frigging demo lol.
Demon of astaroth, astebros, goodboy galaxy, and alwa's awakening didn't need my info for their demo, and in return I'll buy their games since I enjoyed the demo (tried the demo on analogue pocket, will buy it on evercade exp, still waiting for my handheld to arrive).
@Gerald Well, gameboy, gb colors, gb advance, and nes core has save state, so I guess it depends on the core, not the FPGA I think. I heard the snes and genesis core isn't build with save state in mind, so it will be hard to add save state to those cores.
I actually didn't mind snes core didn't have save state since most snes games I've played has internal saves (mostly rpg), but there's a lot of genesis games that didn't have internal save, so I hope sometime in the future we can get save state for genesis core.
Weird I'm not hearing this even though I'm subscribed to them on twitter. Oh well, can't wait to try this on my analogue pocket
@ChromaticDracula Yeah, save state on snes and genesis will be nice since not all of the games support internal saves, like megaman x snes that still use password system, or many genesis games.
@gingerbeardman What "the people whose lives have been affected" need are support and help from the international community, not banning some random games that has "war" on the title.
This looks a bit rough, I prefer nes like 2D games like astalon tears of the earth or alwa awakening. Also I think this is more like linear 2D games rather than metroidvania.
@gingerbeardman You do know there's always war in the world right? Or unless you mean the wars that covered in twitter so people can get clout from pretending to care for it.
Besides, ukraine war is old news, the new hot war is israel-palestine war, get on with the time man, lol.
Edit: Why I have to put my personal info to download a demo? Goodboy galaxy, demon of asteborg, and astebros devs just put their demo normally on their website π
Man I want powerful openfpga console from analogue so I can play other cores on it, like psone, saturn, and maybe dreamcast.
I have n64 back then, some of the games are the best games ever but man the games are expensive compared to psone so I don't have many games for it. I remember having mario 64 (of course), mario kart 64, starfox 64, golden eye, and that's it I think
The screen is just too small, 3.5inch like my analogue pocket is the perfect size for retro handheld device like this I think. Also 4 hours of battery life is kind of bad. But still want it for my retro collection though, the capcom one looks great, I wish the screen is bigger.
Edit: After a bit of search I think I rather buy evercade exp (which has 18 built-in capcom games and irem cartridge) rather than buying super pocket capcom edition. Now I want a couple of evercade cartridge too lol, I want demon of asteborg/astebros, duke nukem collection 1, maybe delphine collection, alwaβs awakening/cathedral, and technos & data east arcade 1 collection.
I hope he goes back to his root and make gods games again, like populous and black & white, maybe not with AAA production but with small indie games budget like most indie on steam.
I played this game on arcade way back then, the game is pretty good. This game, double dragon, robocop, and rainbow island are my childhood arcade games
@samuelvictor Nice , most of it is a gameplay video though, I hope we can get video for features article like this, like Retro Dodo or Retro Game Corps channel.
Do time extension has youtube page? It will be nice to watch the retrospective or maybe retro games reviews on video
@Tasuki Yup, I remember playing prince of persia game on nokia phone (forgot the phone, it's not ngage) way before iphone even made, same with app store on phone. It's just iphone is doing it way better than nokia, and the market choose the better product & service, not the first to launch.
Yeah the others games company will sue the heck of nightdive if they do this. I rather pay for a true remaster /remake like turok, turok 2, system shock remake, etc.
Just do it the legal way, I don't want nightdive disbanded because criminal charge lol.
The problem with ios gaming is with every os update you won't know if it will broke the game or not, and if the developer of the game still want to update the game or not (usually because there's no money to be made).
Unlike console (and pc) gaming, if you bought (offline) games for ps4/ps5/switch/xbox on year one, it will work forever until the console broke.
Android is a bit better than ios but in the end, your games will be more safe if you bought it on console or especially pc.
And don't ever care about cloud gaming, just looks at the games at stadia games, lol.
